    Prior to the game yesterday, at about quarter to 3, outside the club shop, a lad maybe in his late teens, early 20s demanded money from my 60 year old mother.

    She was waiting outside the club shop for my dad to meet her on his way from work, and a lad came up to her demanding she gave him £10. She told him she didn't have it but he insisted she needed to give him the money so he could get inside. My mum could see me in the distance talking to my mate, and tried walking away from him. He kept following her and only left her alone when she began to shout to me.

    She was clearly shaken up. So just a word of warning to anyone who goes to the game with anyone who may be considered vulnerable, there's some utter scumbags out there.

    I wouldn't call that a true supporter.

    I would call that an out and out ****er.

    In fact if people witnessed and heard this then why didn't someone smarten the arse wipe and clock him one round the chops

    Glad to hear your Mum is okay, mate, after having to put up with such a disgusting coward.

    Very sad to be hearing this mate. So glad your mum is OK.

    What utter scum there is about.

    Such a pity he was not caught and been given some friendly advice from true Reds. ;)

    Hope your Mum is okay, Archey. I'm sure this would have shaken anyone up.

    I can't believe there are people out there who would do this.

    Unfortunately no visible crime was committed. And no independent witnesses.

    It could be argued he was only asking the time. Unfortunately :frown:

    But it might of course put the scum bag off doing it again.

    Thanks for the wishes.

    Unfortunately I was on my way into the ground and only found out once I was inside what had gone off; I'm a mild mannered chap, couldn't fight my way out of a paper bag, but it really gets on my goat when people prey on people more vulnerable. I'd have definitely had words.

    Unfortunately as Ian says, I suppose there's no crime committed so little would come of it you'd think.

    Just thought it best to put it out there because I know loads who go to games with their friends, parents and grandparents that could be considered an easy target.

    report this to the Police and the club....cctv?

    maybr there is CCTV outside the ground too, if its been picked up then maybe the Police can locate the footage and hopefully identify and charge this person.

    Not sure.

    But aggressive defence seems to be a crime
